My father died 3 years ago of cancer at a young age. Am I able to get his Social Security benefits? I am a single mom of two and I am having a hard time making ends meet. This would help me greatly.

Survivor's benefits are for spouses and children under the age of 18. If you are 16 and unmarried, you may be able to draw. Check with your local office.
I'm not sure about this, but being you are an adult I honestly don't see how you would qualify for survivor's benefits from your late Dad's Social Security. It would be different if you had a spouse and he had died.

No, you would have had to have been married to the kid's father and if he passed away, you and the children would receive social security.
Hi - you should be checking with your local churches and your local Human Resources for benefits that are available (other than the ones you probably already receive). There are many benefits available for children.
Places like this may not be able to help you but may have a list of places to check.
